Belden Inc. 8019000100 18 Awg Solid Bus Bar Wire

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 8019000100 is an 18 AWG solid conductor bus bar wire designed for fixed wiring applications in electrical panels, control cabinets, and distribution equipment. Solid-conductor construction makes it well suited for bus bar terminations and short interconnect runs where flexibility is not required. Electricians and panel builders use this wire when making reliable, low-resistance point-to-point connections inside enclosures. The solid core provides a consistent cross-section for secure terminal and lug connections, reducing the risk of strands loosening over time.

This wire is commonly used in residential and light commercial electrical panels, control boards, and instrumentation enclosures. It is appropriate for bus bar wiring, grounding jumpers, and short fixed interconnects where an 18 AWG solid conductor meets circuit requirements. Panel technicians and licensed electricians typically specify solid bus bar wire for applications where the conductor will remain stationary after installation.

Key Features

• 18 AWG solid conductor construction for reliable bus bar terminations
• Solid core provides consistent cross-section for secure lug and terminal connections
• Suitable for fixed wiring runs inside electrical panels and control enclosures
• Low-resistance conductor supports accurate signal and power distribution

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose solid bus bar wire for use in electrical panels, control cabinets, and distribution enclosures where an 18 AWG solid conductor is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize and lock out the panel or enclosure before beginning any wiring work. Avoid bending solid conductors repeatedly, as solid-core wire is not intended for flexible or high-flex applications. Ensure all terminations are torqued to the terminal or lug manufacturer specifications found on the equipment being wired.
